Revert a previous change

commit d00d45a8b609d50302c94a0fff20849f0cc13a48 introduced changes
that are causing cluster mirror tests to fail.  Ultimately, I think
the change was right, but a proper clean-up will have to wait.
The portion of the commit we are reverting correlates to the
following commit comment:
    2) lib/metadata/mirror.c:_delete_lv() - should have been calling
       _activate_lv_like_model() with 'mirror_lv'.  This is because
       'mirror_lv' is the LV that the overall operation is being
       performed on.  We need to use this LV as the basis for
       determining whether to activate locally, or across the
       cluster, etc.
It appears that when legs or logs are removed from a mirror, they
are being activated before they are deleted in order to make them
top-level LVs that can be acted upon.  When doing this, it appears
they are not activated based on the characteristics of the mirror
from which they came.  IOW, if the mirror was exclusively active,
the sub-LVs are activated globally.  This is a no-no.  This then
made it impossible to activate_lv_like_model if the model was
"mirror_lv" instead of "lv" in _delete_lv().  Thus, at some point
this change should probably be put back and those location where
the sub-LVs are being improperly activated "shared" instead of
EX should be corrected.
